Crash-landed On An Island With Nine Beauties novel Chapter 170

"What did you just say?"

Ayisha turned to Evelyn who was trying so hard to avoid the searching eyes of the former.

"Don't give me that look away thingy."

Ayisha snapped and Evelyn had no choice but to look at the determined Ayisha.

"I know it sounds really brainless..."

Eveltn tried to defend herself. That was the only technique she could think of at that moment. Ayisha shook her head slowly. It was quite hard to tell what was going through her mind.

They were in an elevator, descending.

Evelyn's face which was pure and mild suddenly stiffened up and her eyebrows cocked. Ayisha was intrigued by the sudden change.

"That was why I never wanted to talk about it. I didn't want to talk about to any of you, because of something like this. I knew I could never avoid it."

She took a pause, not for a moment easing the heat sizzling her face.

"But I thought you were different. I thought you were more mature than the rest, that was why I decided to take you with me. But then it seemed as though I was thinking too highly of you."

Evelyn rolled her eyes, looking away more determinedly from Ayisha.

"If I had known, I would had chosen Claire instead."

She muttered to the steel wall of the elevator, having no intention to gaze upon Ayisha again.

"By the way, the elevator is about to come to a stop. You can as well take it and return to the rest. I'll handle this by myself."

Ayisha wanted to speak, but whenever she thought the talkative Evelyn had stopped, then would a new row be pushed out. But this time it seemed as though the audience had been achieved.

"Which of words said that I doubted you?"

She scolded Evelyn, who though didn't want to look but was left with no choice.

"Tell me. When did I say that you made no sense? Tell me which of my words said so?"

Ayisha was the one raising her voice now. Though her voice weren't too loud, but the atmosphere which permeated the tone told more tale of an edge.

"Didn't you question me? Isn't that the same?"

Evelyn defended. Ayisha wanted to take it on but realised that she would never get to the root of the matter if they kept the conversation going in that direction.

"I don't take you for a fool. In short I consider you as one of the smartest in the group. Unlike some of the girls who feigns to be, you show it. You are perceptive and smart. Why did you think that I decided that you joined our group back on the island?"

Evelyn's wild gaze was beginning to tone down. The glare was slowly turning into a stare. From frown to an expression caught between smile and stern gaze.

"You never chose me. I decided."

She sneered at Ayisha who chuckled.

"It's not funny."

She pouted, folding her arms over her tits like a little girl.

The elevator came to a stop and they walked out.

"Which direction. Where exactly is he? Did he check into a room or --- I mean, how do we find him?"

It appeared that Ayisha was more interested than Evelyn. Though the former had her own ways of concealing her emotions and vulnerabilities.

"I thought you never wanted to be a part of it."

It was quite funny that Evelyn was still holding unto the old feelings.

"Come on we don't have time for this. You know too well that Damien doesn't joke with timing."

Ayisha left Evelyn standing, and walked on. Evelyn kept a stare on her for a while. Perhaps she was trying to get to the root of something.

"Like she knows where we are headed to."

Evelyn called at her. She took the opposite direction and Ayisha turned back.

"Do you know where we are headed to?"

Ayisha called, trying to catch up.

"It's in the letter you dummy. Do you think I would set out if I have no idea?"

"Who knows? After all, no one knew what you were looking for when you saw him..."

Evelyn halted at Ayisha's remark. She had her fat glare seating gracefully again in her beautiful face. It seemed as though she needed to be taught the ignoring skill.

Ayisha, instead of taking responsibility for her words, poked her tongue out to Evelyn who became even more angry.

"Better don't stand there."

Ayisha giggled as she walked on.
